My Bheringer Xenyx has developed an unacceptable hum so today I splashed out on a Focusrite Scarlett Solo, it will be perfect for our needs as we only track one voice or instrument at a time.
I looked at the 2i2 that most seem to use and couldn't see the value for the extra $65 given our needs.
I'll let you all know what I think of it when it turns up and I get the bundled VSTs and drivers loaded
